Keep applying to places.

Don't give up if you get rejected. Look at the whole application process and try to pinpoint what you can improve on. I was unemployed out of school for 7-8 months and only have a part time job at a fast food place. I recently got rejected from working elsewhere but it didn't bother me. I know there will be more opportunities in the future. Even if you aren't working, volunteering is a good way to gain experience while looking for work. ;D

This has been going on for a few years now. It's the stupidist thing. I'm sorry but some people aren't good with money for varying reasons. That doesn't mean that they are unreliable or bad employees.

My credit is terrible, but my boss will tell you that I'm very reliable. I'm here on time every day. I rarely ever am out sick. Even with all the other things bad things that have happened with my job (most of which are discriminatory,) my boss still considers me reliable. And she's very picky on that stuff.

My credit is bad because I'm poor. Not because I'm unreliable. I hate credit scores. They don't tell you the whole story.

From my understanding credit reports are only ran it the job involves working w/ money (bank rep, financial advisor etc..).

Moose72-
Good luck! As far as the credit report, I'm in the same boat. I think many, many people are in that boat, too. Just keep moving forward.

Yeah, b/c of this I'm totally screwed. Nobody wants an accountant with a bad credit report. I had to declare bankruptcy in 2012 due to manic spending and large hospital bills.

It's not that bad applying for jobs. I've applied to over 200 jobs. Have had about 15 interviews. I remember when I first started applying for jobs after I had my breakdown. I was so nervous. It does get better. Now I just do temp work, so I go wherever they tell me to go. Might be something you can look into. Most don't even require an interview. Just a skills and drug test.
